About: I’ve been around and caring for dogs since I was a teenager. My sister has three rescue dogs, so I’ve had lots of hands-on experience caring for dogs with different personalities, energy levels, and needs. I’m also a dog owner myself, which has taught me even more about daily care, walks, routines, patience, and understanding a dog’s individual personality. I genuinely love spending time with dogs and will care for your pup with the same love and attention I give my own. I’m comfortable with dogs of different sizes and energy levels, and my priority is always making sure they feel safe, happy, and loved while they’re with me. I’m available Friday evenings and throughout the weekend, giving me plenty of time to provide your pup with walks, playtime, attention, and lots of love. I’m happy to work with your pet’s usual routine and make sure they get the care and companionship they need while you’re away. I’m a dog owner myself, so I understand how important it is to know your pup is safe and well cared for. I’ll always follow your instructions and your dog’s normal routine, including feeding, walks, playtime, and any special needs. I’ll treat your pup with the same love, patience, and attention I give my own.
About: I am a dog owner myself I have a 12 year old dachshund/chihuahua mix named Cocoa. I rescued cocoa from a shelter at 3mos and she’s been with ever since. I love caring for her and the furry friends in our lives I’m available for pet sitting and care Friday -Sunday weekly. ( I work full-time in office Monday-Thursday). Weekends are usually spent with lots of walks and playtime or rest time with my dog cocoa and we’d love to have a few more furry friends to b hang with. My services will always provide quality time with your pets while you’re away. Each pet is different and every home has its own schedule and I stick with that so that your pet can adjust better while you’re away.
“We highly recommend Kim for drop-in visits! She is always on time and quick to respond with questions or last minute changes in your schedule. She’s professional but also so sweet to Stevie and takes great care of her! We use her each week and trust her to take care of our pup!”
About: I grew up with 2 labs and a miniature dachshund, so I am I lover of all dogs big and small. I’ve been off Rover for a few years due to living in a strict pet free home. But great news, I am now a homeowner ready to love on some dogs before finding my forever bestie. Let me take care of your dog as if they were my own! I am a schedule coordinator at my current job so I have flexible hours. I typically work 9-3 and have open availability on weekends. I live in a safe, condo community with multiple parks nearby to take dogs on walks. Dogs are welcome to roam around my apartment while I’m gone if they’re potty trained and do not damage furniture. There are no other pets at home.
“Having Leanna come and check in on my babies while I was gone was the best decision ever! She kept me up to date with pictures and videos. My babies looked so happy. Will definitely use again!”
“I loved working with Meagan! We met prior to my travels to let my cat get familiar with her, and it was apparent right away how great Meagan is with animals. She was very communicative, punctual and sent so many picture updates of my cat! It was such a relief to know my buddy was well cared for while I was away. I’ll definitely be contacting Meagan the next time I need cat care!”
“Leah is great with my dogs. After only 3 days, they are warmimg up to her. I feel lucky to find someone who loves dogs as mush as I do to drop in on them. She always manages the best photos, too!”
About: Leaving your dog or cat with someone else can feel like a BIG deal! You want to know they’re safe, loved, comfortable, and in the hands of someone you can trust. That’s exactly what I’m here for. I’ve been part of the Rover community since 2019, and over the years I’ve had the opportunity to build wonderful relationships with pets and their parents. I treat every pet like they’re my own and make sure they receive the attention, patience, and care they deserve. I especially enjoy caring for puppies and medium-energy pups who need a little extra attention and structure throughout the day. Whether they love going on walks, playing, getting some extra cuddles, or simply having quiet time to decompress, I’m happy to meet them where they’re at. My goal is simple: for you to feel confident knowing your fur baby is safe, happy, and well cared for while you’re away. 🐶🐱💕 I have 3 cats of my own so taking care of someone else’s fur baby and incorporating them into my routine is very easy and enjoyable. I have a fenced yard behind my apartment where they can play and run around. I also have a park and dog area to take them to release all their energy. Best part is, It is a very dog friendly community!
“I highly recommend Irina. She walked my dogs for 7 days and sent pictures daily and took great care for my dogs. She is a true professional and really cares for animals. Thank you Irina:). You made my trip less stressful.”
“Caitlyn has cared for my dog, Axel, for quite some time now. She’s responsible, caring, attentive, and easy going. I appreciate her greatly, and will continue to have her care for Axel Snow.”
“Second time with Aylin. I believe Ace and Spencer just loves the company. She was able to accommodate us a week before we left which was really cool. Thanks again Aylin!”
About: I have years of hands on experience caring for dogs, as someone who rescued a dog at one week old. I know it is important to have someone you can trust to watch your dog. As a dog owner myself, I understand the importance of daily walks, feeding schedules, playtime, routines and of course lots and lots of affection. I am comfortable caring for dogs with different personalities, temperament and energy levels. I am attentive to any instructions you leave pertaining to your dog. I can provide regular updates, pictures, videos and facetimes so you can know your pet is safe and cared for. I am currently work from home then off after 5 pm, will do regular walks during the day as well as before and after work. I only service from my home. I am extremely flexible, so whatever your routine is, I am happy to keep it going with your dog for their stay.
About: What sets me apart is my background in dog grooming. I recently completed a grooming course in Peru and now work as a pet bather at PetSmart, on my way to becoming a certified dog stylist. Because I groom dogs, I’ve learned to notice the small signs — like tense body language or lip licking — that show a dog is getting anxious, so I can step in and calm them down before it becomes a bigger issue. On top of that, I live with my own senior chihuahua, a young high-energy Shepherd mix, and a cat, so I’m already used to handling very different personalities and energy levels day to day. I work full-time but I’m off at 5pm every day, which gives me time for afternoon walks, drop-in visits, and feedings right after work. I also have 2 days off during the week where I’m available any time of day for longer visits or sits. And since I’m a night owl, I’m happy to help pet parents who get home late — I can handle late-night walks or check-ins when other sitters might not be available. I’m also able to keep a consistent daily schedule, so your pet can count on the same routine they’re used to. With my own dogs, I walk them three times a day—morning, afternoon, and evening—for at least 15 minutes to keep them active and happy. If time allows, I enjoy taking longer walks depending on the dog’s energy level and needs. During the week, I also like taking them to a park or somewhere new so they can explore and smell new things for enrichment. At home, I always make time to play with them and keep them mentally stimulated. For my cat, I have a cat tree and several scratching posts around the house so they stay comfortable and entertained. When caring for a client’s pet, I make sure to follow their routine, feeding schedule, and any specific instructions so their pet feels safe and comfortable.

Dog parents share their Rover experiences - Farmers Branch
Kimberly is wonderful to work with, as a two veterinarian household I get nervous leaving our three old gals for the weekend with someone new but she made it so stress free. She made sure our oldest got her meds, even took time to feed our fish. My dogs loved her and she sent cute little photo updates. She was always timely and gave them ample time to potty in the yard and relax out of their kennels. Will be reaching out to book with her again, that peace of mind is priceless.
Out of all the dog sitters I’ve had, my fur babies love Courtney the most. They were very welcoming towards her. They even allowed her to walk them, (which never happens with anyone, even my family members.) My dogs trust her, which makes me trust and appreciate her even more. I highly highly recommend Courtney’s services. You will not be disappointed.
Taylor was absolutely amazing with our dog, Ester! She was able to help us out with less than 24 hours’ notice, which we really appreciated, and she even made time for a meet and greet beforehand so they could get comfortable with each other. She was always on time, took great photos, and communicated so well throughout the entire experience. It was clear that she was genuinely excited to help care for Ester, which made us feel so comfortable and confident leaving her in Taylor’s hands. We would absolutely recommend Taylor to anyone looking for someone who will truly care about their pet, and we will be booking with her again!
Maria is always great and I trust her a lot with Seiya. She’s always on time and really dedicates her time to my doggie. Great communication and keeps me posted on anything she notices - from whether Seiya has a mood to play, to eat or whatsoever! This is not the first time Maria looks after Seiya and will definitely not be the last one
Lily was fantastic! This was my first time utilizing a sitter for my elderly dog. We arranged an introductory meeting and all of my worries and concerns disappeared. I was able to enjoy my vacation due to Lily’s loving care and detailed correspondence on a daily basis. I will definitely seek her out for services in the future!

You and your sitter can agree on a care schedule that fits your pet’s routine and the sitter’s availability. Pet Sitting can be booked as a one-time or recurring drop-in visit. If you need overnight care or dog walks, you may also be able to book House Sitting or Dog Walking through Rover with the same sitter, provided they offer those services.
Before booking, confirm:
- the timing, length, and frequency of visits;
- the care instructions the sitter should follow;
- which parts of your pet’s usual routine should be prioritized;
- how often you would like to receive messages, photos, or other updates.
Not every sitter offers the same services, availability, or booking options. Review their profile and discuss the care you need through Rover before booking each service.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Farmers Branch choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justice’s National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.
Beyond ID checks, you can review each sitter's star rating, read verified reviews from other pet parents, and see how many repeat clients they have. Every booking is backed by the Rover Guarantee, which includes up to $25,000 in eligible veterinary care. For more details, visit .
The Rover Guarantee is Rover’s commitment to your peace of mind every time you book.

A Meet & Greet is a casual meeting to vet potential sitters and communicate care needs for peace of mind before a booking begins. Only sitters who have never booked with you before can schedule a Meet & Greet on Rover; however, you are welcome to coordinate one in Rover messages with sitters you have previously booked. This can be helpful if you have a new pet or routine you want to go over with your sitter.
Meet & Greets can take place in person or virtually. If you are booking with a sitter for the first time, we recommend in-person Meet & Greets to get a clearer sense of how your sitter interacts with your pet or the new environment.
During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Meet & Greets are a great way to prepare your pet and sitter for longer stays or first-time bookings. Read our tips for your first .
